An important topic in Education:

DO YOU KNOW HOW TO SPOT COLIC IN HORSES?

Colic is not a disease; it is merely a symptom of disease. Specifically, colic indicates a painful problem in the horse's abdomen (belly), which can be caused by a number of different conditions. Less than 10% of all colic cases are severe enough to require surgery or cause the death of the horse; nevertheless, every case of colic should be taken seriously because it can be difficult to tell the mild ones from the potentially serious ones in the early stages.

Horses show signs of abdominal pain in a wide variety of ways, and usually a horse shows only a few of the signs during an episode of colic. The rule of thumb is—the more obvious the signs of pain, the more serious the problem.

If you suspect the horse is suffering from colic, we suggest that you:
• Alert your veterinarian immediately.
• Remove all hay and grain from the horse's surroundings.
• Don't medicate without your veterinarian's approval, as pain medications can mask clinical signs;
• Walk the horse around if it's continually rolling or in danger of hurting itself—but do not tire the horse with relentless walking and don't approach the animal if it's not safe.
• Keep the horse under close observation until the signs of colic resolve or the veterinarian arrives.

The key to increasing the chances of a good outcome is to identify the problem early and get your veterinarian involved from the start. Consult your horse doctor for more information and be sure to ask them how they can be reached if your horse colics after hours!

Peter Gray - simply an incredible educator and inspirational motivator.

Priddis Creek was very fortunate to attend CEDF’s Dressage Symposium with Peter Gray in the fall. Looking forward to seeing him in 2023!!!

Sitting in the judge’s box as the first horse cantered around the outside of the dressage ring at the 2021 Land Rover Kentucky Three-Day Event, Peter Gray could feel his heart pounding.

The Event at Rebecca Farms in Kalispell Montana is where the best of the best - Eventers in the West go to compete. The event is a highly competitive upper level event and requires all the skillsets pony club teaches.

Priddis Creek Pony Club is very proud of its riders and grooms that attended Rebecca Farms 2022!

Bronwyn and her horse Braithe completed the Dressage and XC of the FEI 2*, an amazing feat for this pair. A slight bit off, Bronwyn chose to forgo the SJ phase to compete another day - simply excellent care and horsemanship exhibited by this young lady! She could not have done a better job this weekend. Way to go Bronwyn! Such a success!

Caitlyn had a phenomenal showing with 2 horses.
EMS Florence in the Preliminary Division had an excellent dressage test, was in first place after Cross Country with no faults. A rail in SJ placed them to finish in 2nd place!
Equites Sauteur (the not so baby 5 year old) also had an excellent dressage test and clear cross country in the Novice Division. 2 green rails in showjump for a great finish for this pair - looking forward to seeing this pair develop.

Excellent riding, and most importantly excellent horse care and management by the PCPC crew - appropriate care of these performance horses as always provided by these knowledgeable and diligent PC members is more important than any ribbon. Well done ladies! These horses are in such good hands!

Thanks so much to everyone who came and supported!! We are so proud to have such a great club! Breanne was an excellent support groom (could not have done it without her!) and ‘gopher’!

Special thanks to coaches Sandra Donnelly and Brian Vicars for always being there, watching and guiding. You are the best!!!

Also Sue Barrington - thank you for what you did for the team!

Looking forward to returning to Rebecca Farms for the AECs (American Eventing Championships) with the PCPC crew!
